A complex scalar field that describes a quantum mechanical system. The square of the modulus of the wave function gives the probability of the system to be found in a particular state. DO NOT USE THIS TAG for classical waves.

Factorization of non-stationary states

It is common to read about two particles systems in which the particles are independent and their wave function is factorized as $\psi(x_a) \psi(x_b)$ where $\psi(x_a)$ and $\psi(x_b)$ are stationary …

What is the time dependence in the wave function?

The general solution of the Schrodinger is $\Psi(x,t)$. Is it correct to interpret it as $(\Psi(x))(t)$ namely, the field $\Psi(x)$ is the actual state of the particle and $(\Psi(x))(t)$ is a function …

Can I see separation of variables as a tensor product?

Can I see separation of variables as a tensor product? For example, in a radial potential, the separation of variables brings to the solution $R(r)\Theta(\theta) \Phi (\phi)$. This sounds like an elem …

Partial waves method in scattering problems

One way of deal with scattering problems is to use partial wave analysis. This is the procedure I've found in my notes: It's assumed that the observer is in the center-of-mass reference frame and the …
